Video: How To – Installing Tamiya’s Double Cardan Axles onto your TA08 Pro | CompetitionX

While we love the performance of our Tamiya TA08 Pro, we are looking at installing a spool in the front – we love the way a spool feels in our other Tamiya rides. That being said, it’s a good idea to install Double Carden Joint Shafts (AKA Axles) as well to help eliminate rotational vibrations with the spool. In addition, these axles will also add a bit more steering.

In this video, we show you how to build and install the Double Carden Axles into your TA08 Pro.

Enjoy the video.
